Accompanying Partner’s Program at SMISS-AP 2025

Because every memorable conference deserves a memorable experience for your partner too.

While SMISS-AP 2025 promises a cutting-edge academic agenda, we haven’t forgotten the ones who support us beyond the operating rooms — your accompanying partners. For them, we’ve curated a thoughtfully designed program of cultural indulgence, mindful mornings, and local experiences, all set against the stunning backdrop of The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai.

From sunrise yoga sessions to Mumbai’s famous food trails, this program offers a perfect balance of relaxation, discovery, and celebration.

Highlights of the Program:

• Wake-Up Rituals: Daily yoga sessions within palace premises

• Guided Heritage Walks: Explore the legacy of the Taj with the Palace Historian

• Kids at Taj: Interactive culinary sessions designed for children

• The Sunset Ritual: A signature Taj tradition every evening

• Mumbai By Dawn: A 5 AM journey through the city’s most authentic moments

• Khau Gully Tour: A mouthwatering 10-course Mumbai food tasting experience

• Bollywood Dance Class: Let your hair down, Mumbai-style!

• City Heritage Drive: Visit 11 iconic sights in a chauffeured coach

Note: Some experiences are complimentary and supported by the Organising Committee, while others are to be individually paid.
